Hi there, it's Shahrul here. Have you made any barely-there cards, ATCs or tags before?. Neither do I, so I'm most excited to share a Barely-there Tag Carousel project with you this month. Tags are made entirely out of discarded plastic cartons from wafers and biscuits packages!. Here's how it looks like....

No worries if you are not a fan of Alice :). The carousel is perfect to hold Thanksgiving I-Feel-Grateful-For notes, to be a Christmas wish tree, a calendar, a fun ATCs display, little photos memory keeper and many more!. Is that not cool?

Humble materials used in this project

Plastic cartons, glass bottles, glass crystals and paper clips.

I used an old copper jewelry carousal, bought at the fleamarket to hang all these goodies :). You can create a tree if you like. Using jewelry making tools, I made little tags and ATC-sized cards to hang. Then I added many more glassy and transparent things for fun.

I made some image transfer with clear packing tapes using Magic AliceDigital Collage Sheets from Nicecrane Designs [thanks, Ignacio!]. Love that these images are still somewhat transparent.

Honestly speaking this idea came so spontaneously...within seconds when I saw my Maya Road Bingo chipboard packaging, immediately I know what I need to do....This project is totally CAS...easy...And the best part is it can be found in your stash or even on your crafty desk.... !!!

After the transformation....perfect for a girlie gift....Don't you think so?

Something different from me... instead of using stamps...
I used my typewriter.... "Just For YOU"

I can't wait to see what everyone will create....

Aren't these just fun ideas to incorporate something clear on your projects? We would so love to see your take on LESSology Challenge #20: Barely there! How about leaving these ladies some sweet comments? :)
